Erik Luo Nov 2020
We were dancing
in the void
Spinning and laughing...
Your hair is grey and shiny
Like those silver linings
You face, with wrinkles and lines
Like rivers flowing,
Into a smile
And your eyes
glittering,
Speaking of love
So much love

Sway after sway
Around after around
As if reversing time
You became younger
with every step

“You are like the sunshine to me, my love”
You said
As we danced
towards the end...

~
Gliding along
The edge of night
Voiceless
In their sorrow
Silent in the wake
Of remissive waters

Their call
Their beckoning
A flare
To the soundless heavens
Quiet in the assured
Expectation of faith

~
Inspired by Sarita Aditya Verma and her poem "The Journey."

Erik Luo Nov 2020
In the void of the unknown
I faced the dark souls
Of the dreams and hopes
Once left untold

Stranded
On the beach
Dying
Helpless...

I touched the sun
And became the light
That flew across
The sea and land

Until
it hit your eyes
And in a flash
Disappeared
Never to be seen
Again
Erik Luo Nov 2020
The bell rings at the wake of dawn
Singing the echo of that holy song
Where in this moment we shall sit
And await the presence of next gong

The wind is howling about a secret
Of the magical beauty in the now
As it flew, it kissed my skin
And took away all my wrongs

The drum beating in my chest
Speaking the words of divine love
Where no mind nor thoughts,
Can disturb this song

I am...

Nothing more

I asked
Mama,
"What do
they
want from
me?"
and she
replied,
"All anyone
wants
for you
is
to be
happy."
Erik Luo Nov 2020
The world you experience
Is a mirror
of the perception
Of your self

For the two were never apart
One looking at the other
While the other looked back

Remembering,
Questioning,
and forgetting
This...
